Biography
Lucius Caesetius Flavus was a member of the Roman Senate before being appointed a tribune of the people in the city of Rome. In 45 BC, he and Gaius Epidius Marullus drove a crowd of commoners from the streets for celebrating Julius Caesar's victory at the Battle of Munda, insulting the crowd for changing their loyalty from Pompey the Great to Caesar. The two tribunes later removed a diadem from a statue of Caesar, and they arrested several Romans who cried out Rex ("King") as Caesar passed them by on the streets. Caesar acted harshly against the tribunes who arrested his supporters, stripping them of senatorial and tribunal rank.
